Up for a sale in this nice little Carvin combo I bought new years ago and has seen only limited, smoke-free studio use. It’s got a UK-made Celestion Vintage 30 12 speaker which go by themselves on the used market for about a hundred bucks. Amp was made in the Carvin factory in San Diego and, alas, made no more because Carvin is out of the amp business. It’s got great spring reverb something that’s kind of hard to find these days. It sounds a lot like a Fender Princeton. Just loud enough for you. Here’s what Carvin says about the amp: The Vintage 16 is the low-wattage, “boutique” recording tube amp so many players are looking for. Everything about this little amp “oozes” tone. The SOAK control goes from stout clean tones with rich midrange body to a filling upper-midrange snarl defining its tweed sound. The ALL tube design incorporates V1 12AX7 preamp and two EL84 output tubes. The power amp in its normal “PENTODE” mode puts out a crisp 16 watts. The “TRIODE” mode produces 5 watts of incredibly sweet spongy harmonics, ideal for both mic’d recording and small stage rigs. Selectable 8 ohm/16 ohm impedance switch, along with silent mode for line-out operation. Made to last, with a quality plywood enclosure covered in vintage tweed. The sound possibilities are only limited by your fingers and imagination! – All tube design – two 12AX7 preamp tubes, two EL84 output power tubes – 1 Meg Passive tone controls for broad adjustment range. Front controls: VOLUME, SOAK, BASS, MID, TREBLE and REVERB – Metal shaft controls, ivory knobs, red jewel lamp – Strong plywood enclosure covered in thick tweed vinyl – GT12 speaker – Output: 16 watts / 5 Watts, Pentode / Triode into 8ohms – Cabinet-voiced line out, 2 speaker jacks – CH EQ: 60, 650, & 11.5K Hz.
